Building the Foundations for Their Future
Strong grades in core subjects like Maths and English are the building blocks for your child's future. They don't just lead to great exam results; they develop crucial skills for life. Mastering algebra, for instance, teaches logical thinking, while analysing a text like 'Macbeth' builds critical reasoning. These are the skills that will help them secure a place at college or a top university like Leeds or York, and open doors to the career they dream of.

The Right Support for Your Child's Skipton Journey
We believe the best learning happens when a tutor truly understands your child. That's why our tutors take the time to get to know their learning style, their strengths, and the areas where they need a bit more help. We're very selective, only accepting 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child is learning from the best. Every one-to-one lesson is planned around your child. If they're finding a specific part of the 11+ syllabus tricky or need to go over algebra for their GCSEs, the session will focus on exactly that. This targeted approach means they make real, noticeable progress, which is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With our online tutors, you can find the perfect match for your child and schedule lessons at times that fit around school, clubs, and family life. It's expert help, made simple and convenient for you.

Alan W
Vastly experienced A level chemistry tutor
I have taught A level chemistry since 1988 and have experience of several examination boards (principally AQA and OCR but there is little variation in content between boards since 2015) both as a teacher and as an examiner. Until recently, I taught at a large 6th form college teaching A level chemistry only and led the department for ten years before becoming a senior manager. Chemistry can be a confusing subject due to the uniqueness of the language used and the impossibility of actually seeing the subject on a molecular level.However, it is a fundamentally logical subject and, hence, I like to...

Amirhossein S
Amir has been and continues to be fantastic.In a very short period of time (weeks) he has taken my son up a grade/grade and a half in both maths and computer science. We shall most definitely be continuing with Amir up to my son’s A levels and now fully expect him to achieve As in both. My son even said the other day that if he had had Amir a year ago, he could have even studied further maths. The confidence Amir has given my son back is quite something. I am very grateful to Amir, he is a very great tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for Ermysted's or Skipton Girls' High. Can we find a specialist tutor?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have specific experience helping children prepare for the 11+ entrance exams. You can check their profiles for details on their expertise with grammar school applications and use the messaging feature to ask about their approach before booking.
We're hoping for a place at a top university like Leeds or York. Can a tutor help with A-Levels?
Yes, definitely. Our A-Level tutors are subject specialists who can help your child master complex topics and develop the exam technique needed to achieve top grades. This can make a huge difference when applying for competitive university courses.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That’s why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the best tutor for my child in Skipton?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. It's all about finding a personality and teaching style that your child will respond to.
My child has lost their confidence. Can a tutor really help with that?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one support. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of being judged. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges together is a huge confidence booster.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked, and we interview them to ensure they have the right experience. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the best.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a microphone, a camera, and a stable internet connection.
Can tutoring help with GCSEs?
Yes, our tutors are brilliant at helping students prepare for their GCSEs. They can help close any knowledge gaps and focus on exam technique. In fact, focused tutoring can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
Is tutoring only for core academic subjects?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for Maths, English and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical skills like coding or a musical instrument like the guitar. It's a great way for your child to explore new interests.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that one lesson a week works well, but it's completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that suits your child's needs and your family's routine directly with your chosen tutor.
What makes Tutorful different from other platforms?
We focus on finding the perfect human connection between tutor and student. With over 4,100+ reviews giving us a 4.6-star rating, parents trust us to provide high-quality, personalised support that helps their children succeed.
